Why it matters
For pest control, the adoption points to scheduled patrol rounds giving way to camera-and-cellular monitoring, and Soracom's flexible SIM counts plus a single SIM for domestic and overseas use tie the deployment to RYODEN's expansion plans.
Key Facts
- RYODEN began selling Pescle Lite, an AI-enabled remote trap monitoring system, in October.
- SORACOM supplies the cellular communications platform for Pescle Lite.
- Pescle Lite attaches to box traps and capture traps and pairs a camera with a pest and animal detection algorithm.
- Soracom cites a test mode that lowers communication charges during manufacturing and inventory periods.
- One SORACOM SIM supports both domestic and overseas use.
The battery-powered device attaches to box traps and capture traps for rats and pests, pairing a small camera with a pest and animal detection algorithm and a cellular module. Users check device status on the web and receive notifications; the aim is to optimize how often staff patrol.
Soracom's stated reasons for the adoption are practical. RYODEN can procure IoT SIMs as the business expands, turn communication on or off from a user console, and run a test mode that lowers communication charges during manufacturing and inventory periods. One SIM covers both domestic and overseas use.
The hardware is a retrofit: a camera and cellular module that attach to existing box traps and capture traps, with RYODEN's own pest and animal detection algorithm reading the images. No Wi-Fi is needed, so the units fit factory grounds and outdoor sites. The stated aim is to move staff from periodic patrols to the locations that need attention, and to earlier detection and cause analysis at sites with hygiene requirements.
